About this listen
After the death of her grandmother, reluctant heiress Madilyn Marak agrees to stay with her grandfather at the estate for the summer. There, she finds an old diary hidden in an antique desk in the attic—The Apple Diary—written by her great-grandmother Isabel.
In there, she finds the love story of Isabel and Lorah, along with a photograph of the two young women from 1933. The diary, like the love affair, was short and brief, but rich and vivid enough for her to feel a true bond with the women despite the heartbreaking ending.
She is determined to get Isabel's beloved apple orchard vibrant again. She hires the inexperienced Dylan Hayes, a woman soon to be homeless, to take on the chore of restoring the orchard to its original glory.
The normally quiet and reserved Madilyn finds a new joy in life as she becomes friends with the outgoing and energetic woman who has come to live on the property. As she is transformed from a stoic and passive heiress to a happy and spirited woman, she realizes the similarities of her journey and that of Isabel's.
Like Isabel, is she destined to marry a man she doesn't love? Or will she find the strength that eluded Isabel and follow her heart?

always excellent
Author and narrator deliver another fantastic listen! There is a bit where the voices are the wrong way round, but hopefully that'll get fixed :)

great story however i think it was cut to short. hopefully a series can be started as both individuals are young and have means to do plenty with the land and foundation.

Romance witha capital R
Romance blossoms in a gentle thoughtful story. The alternate universe of wealth setting is well used to provide an interesting storyline.

A gentle romance with a lesson to seize the moment
Gerri Hill has not written one book I don't like yet and this one fitted my current need for gentle, sweet romance in a place that feels real and with characters who feel real. I wish it was because I would love to visit with the beautiful nature and all the history but at least I will be able to visit the audiobook again.
Unfortunately I did not much care for Abby Craden's narration. I nearly always find her too OTT and her snickering giggles in this, which sounded like a precocious 6 year old, were especially irritating but even she could not wreck this one for me.

Wow I loved this!
I enjoyed this so much it was difficult for me to leave it be. The characters pulled me in. I loved being part of this journey. Excellent writing from a wonderful Author. I know I have posted the same review for Gerri's other writings, but it all comes down to the fact that I am drawn to an excellent story which they all are.
Abby, I can't find any other voice/narrator, that is so capable of making each character so individual. You are so skilled in your craft and an absolute must in my book.
